SOJOURNING SHOPPING f STUDYING IN PARIS Note THIS little book is intended for the use of women and girls going to Paris, whether for a long or a short stay. My aim has been to give the addresses of suitable hotels, boarding-houses, shops, schools of art, teachers, and places of amusement, particularly those places to which women may safely go without es cort to indicate enjoyable excursions by steamboat, railway, or tramway to mention the usual charges for board, fees to servants, and prices generally in short, to provide the visitor with such information as will save her most of the annoyance that commonly falls to the lot of women who go alone to a strange city. While the book is small enough to be easily carried in a handbag, the information it contains will be found quite full, as well as accurate. The addresses I have given are all known, either to myself or friends, to be desirable, and may be relied on. I shall be grateful to readers who will notify the publishers of any errors they may discover in the book. E. O. W. BALTIMORE, February 15, 1907. Key to Map THE figures in parentheses following many of the addresses in this volume indicate the map square, or squares, in which a particular street lies, and will be found of service in locating addresses.
